Wide range of products on display at ACLE
31/08/2016
This year’s edition sees a total of 1,167 exhibitors from 35 countries. There are 19 group pavilions from the world’s most prominent leather producing countries as well as chemical companies and equipment suppliers, who are presenting their latest technological developments.
ACLE is jointly organised by the China Leather Industry Association (CLIA) and APLF.
Speaking at the opening press conference on August 31, Michael Duck, Director of APLF said ACLE had become “a complete, integrated event designed to serve the needs of China’s dynamic leather industry”.
He added that the event has “moved with the times” and is a crucial element in bringing together international suppliers and companies within China’s leather industry.
Among the companies to show their new products and applications over three days are BASF, Lanxess, Zschimmer & Schwarz, Stahl, TFL and Smit & Zoon. These developments include top coat finishing, environmentally-friendly tanning technologies and fatliquoring systems.
Mr Duck also announced a congress would take place ahead of the next edition of ACLE in Shanghai in August 2017. It will be co-hosted by the Taiwanese International Leather Association (TILA) and the CLIA, with APLF as a founding sponsor.
